Learn How to Convert Materials from Different Renderers to V-Ray with V-RayMtl Converter 3
Introduction
V-RayMtl Converter 3 is a plugin for 3ds Max that allows you to convert materials, maps and other scene components from different renderer engines into V-Ray, as well as to reverse the conversion of V-Ray materials into Standard materials. This plugin supports converting materials from multiple *.max files, backing up procedural textures for converted materials, converting scene lights and cameras to V-Ray versions, configuring ACEScg/sRGB workflow in V-Ray, and more advanced conversion and scene fix tools.
This plugin is very useful for game developers, 3d modelers, and anyone who works with different renderers in 3ds Max. It can save you a lot of time and effort by automating the tedious process of converting materials manually. It can also help you optimize your scene for better performance and quality in V-Ray.

Features
V-RayMtl Converter 3 has many features that make it a powerful and versatile tool for converting materials and other scene components. Some of the main features are:
Convert supported materials to V-Ray materials: This feature allows you to convert different types of materials (currently supported: Standard, Raytrace, Autodesk Material, Architectural, mrArch&Design, Corona Renderer, NVIDIA iray (unofficial), fr-Advanced, Brazil Advanced) to V-Ray materials. You can see the full list of supported materials .
Convert V-Ray materials to Standard materials: This feature allows you to reverse the conversion of V-Ray materials into Standard materials (which is very useful for game developers, modelers etc.). You can see the full list of supported materials .
Batch conversion of materials in multiple *.max files: This feature allows you to convert materials from multiple *.max files at once. You can select the files from a folder or drag and drop them into the plugin interface.
Backed procedural textures for converted materials: This feature allows you to back up procedural textures (such as Noise, Gradient, Cellular etc.) for converted materials as bitmap files. This can help you reduce memory usage and improve rendering speed.

The Advanced Fix Tools section allows you to fix some specific issues in your converted materials, such as adjusting reflection glossiness, fixing albedo values, removing VRayDirt maps, and more. You can also use this section to convert standard bitmaps to VRayBitmaps or VRayHDRIs.
The Status Bar section shows you the progress and status of the conversion process, as well as some useful information such as the number of converted materials, maps, lights, cameras, proxies, and displacement modifiers.
To convert materials using V-RayMtl Converter 3, follow these steps:
Select the type of conversion you want to perform from the drop-down list. For example, if you want to convert Standard materials to V-Ray materials, select To VRayMtl.
Select the materials you want to convert from the scene or from multiple *.max files. You can use the buttons below the drop-down list to select all materials, invert selection, clear selection, or select by name. You can also drag and drop *.max files into the plugin interface.
Select any additional options you want to apply for the conversion process. For example, if you want to back up procedural textures for converted materials, check the option Bake Procedural Textures (Noise etc.) for converted Materials.
If you want to convert scene lights and cameras to V-Ray versions, check the options Lights To VRayLight (Omni/Spot/Dir) and/or <
